I apologize for not having paid close enough attention earlier, but:
this patch is absolutely unacceptable for the back branches and MUST
be reverted there.  Adding another field to StringInfoData is an ABI
change that will certainly break large numbers of extensions.  We
can't expect those to get recompiled for minor releases.

			regards, tom lane
